Hi there, its me again, I was wondering, what are serpents for?, also in your experience how much would it cost a cheap 6*?Thanks

Oh hi there! Sorry about the late response, I had a friend over.

The serpents are going to be used for an Awakening event in the near future. By using Awakening stones gained during the event you can turn that 3* monster into either a 4* Unit or a 6* unit, depending on how many stones you used and how lucky you are.

http://w.livedoor.jp/fantasica/d/%b3%d0%c0%c3 is the link to the Japanese Fantasica wiki page that explains it--if you're using google chrome it'll give you the option to translate the page to english--obviously it's not a perfect translation so some things will be a bit weird but there'll be enough to figure out what it means.

As for what would be a the price on a cheap 6*, generally between 40 and 50 TE are the best prices you'll find. Auctions are generally a good way to go if you're on a tight budget--I've seen some go for as low as 30 TE on in-game auctions, where people are saving their TE in the hopes of something more rare and valuable being later in the auction.

EDIT: Word of advice, watch out for Alexander. He's a 6* that goes ridiculously cheap but there's a reason for it--his attacks, both in delay and animation are so slow that by the time they finish the enemy has moved out of his range, often even with other units using slow and/or knockback.

Ok, thanks, so I suppose it's better to aim for a couple of 5* before I start buying 6*.

Thanks a lot.

Yup! If you need any advice on what to look for and what to expect for prices let me know. Fantasitrade.com is a good way to get a feel for prices if you already know a specific card you're looking for.

I would say it depends on what those 3 5* are. I like to have all of the bases covered--one melee, ranged, and magic, one slow, knockback, area attack, and poison. Granted, it's really not a huge deal if you're missing one of the special abilities in your 5*s. But if you're missing a melee or a missile, you might find some events pretty hard.

If you've got all that it might be a good idea to go for a 6*, assuming you have a way of building up the TE to do so. Usually it'll involve selling some 5*s. If you've got a lot of spare time, probably the best way to make TE is to look out for auctions, try to get a 5* or rare 4* (like the original debbie) cheap and then try to sell them off for somewhere between normal going price and what you paid for it.

Oh, thats right, I almost sold everything for the trade, I've got 5 TE in savings for the auction. So, is it easier to sell 4*s if they are leveled up, like level 40 or so, or better try to sell them fresh. Because I still have 5 more.

Unfortunately the best answer I can give you is "it depends." Fresh ones sell best to those who are either trying to fill out their album or are newer players, who usually won't have much TE and so will probably only spend 1 or TE at a time. Level 40 ones sell best to people who are trying to level their brand new 6*s very fast, and have a lot of spare TE--so they're likely to buy every lvl 40 you have, but you won't run into these as often as the people who will buy the fresh ones. So with freshes you'll pick up a bit here and a bit there, 40s you'll wait awhile longer and sell all at once. Of course, the level 40 ones have the benefit of being worth about four times as much as the fresh ones, so even if you have to wait longer it may be worth it just for that.

And as a side note, max 4*s rarely sell unless they're from old events and you won't find them lower level at all, or if there's an event going on where they're particularly useful (like that Mina's Trials that limited to 4*s). So if you max them out you're probably going to be waiting a long time.
